Heavy military transport aircraft Il-76MD-90A is an upgraded version of the famous aircraft Il-76MD that had once been manufactured in the Republic of Uzbekistan at the Tashkent factory named after Chkalov. The new integrated flight and navigation system, the automatic control system, the communications system and the “glass cabin” comply with all up-to-date aircraft avionics requirements and significantly increase the flight safety, navigation and cargo/troop parachute dropping accuracy. Replacement of standard D-30KP2 engines with much more up-to-date PS-90A-76 ones, installation of a modified wing and a reinforced landing gear significantly extend the aircraft performance.
Originally developed by: “Aviation Complex named after S.V. Ilyushin”, Russia
The heavy strategic military transport aircraft Il-76MD-90A is designed for inter-regional transportation of troops, heavy long-size vehicles and cargoes as well as for cargo/heavy vehicles/troops parachute dropping and air-mission landing. The aircraft transports the whole list of military equipment used by airborne troops of Russia. IL76MD-90A can be also used for transportation of ill and injured people and for fire-extinguishing purposes.
